3 days ...

Until Reese's 1st birthday!! 

Today she had her 1 year pediatrician appointment.  She is healthy, happy and adorable ;)  Reese now weighs 23 lbs (75th %tile), is 28 1/2" long (30th %tile) and her head circumference is in the 50 %tile!

She was very happy for Dr. Radisic until the last 5 minutes!  We brought up a couple of concerns, her disinterest in milk and waking up at night.  She eats yogurt and cheese and enjoys it, but doesn't care for milk (yet).  So we will keep trying it and hopefully she'll start enjoying it more!  We've cut back on the kid's milk consumption quite a bit after talking to the naturopath (who is totally against cow's milk consumption!!) and realizing that according to the Canada Food Guide they really only need a small amount of milk and milk products in their day and they eat a lot of yogurt!  So I'm not too worried about Reese's milk consumption, but definitely would like her to enjoy a cup of milk now and then.  As for the night waking that has begun, as suspected I think it is a separation anxiety thing :S  Hopefully she'll get back to no night time wakings sooner then later!!  We're home for awhile now, with no over night trips planned, which will help!

We had Emerson's ears checked to make sure the amoxicillin worked and her ear infection is gone, which it is.  The nurse also weighed her and she weighs 30 lbs now!!  I guess all that intake is going somewhere ;) 

We're looking forward to spending the day together on Saturday and celebrating Reese's 1sth birthday with friends and family on Sunday!!

Talk again soon,

Tracy
